Come Travel Texas with Texas Back Roads Restaurant Recipes Cookbook

Discover the best mom-and-pop eateries the Lone Star State has to offer with the Texas Back Road Restaurant Recipes Cookbook. This Texas cookbook is the fourth volume in the State Back Road Restaurant Recipes Series. Once again, Anita Musgrove uncovers the Texas restaurants and Texas recipes from the state’s back road restaurants, making this a true Taste of Texas cookbook. From coastal swamps and piney woods to rolling hills and rugged deserts, the second largest state in the U.S. has uncountable treasures to unearth in its three diverse regions: Northwestern, Southern, and Eastern.

Pecans, Amusement Parks & Pie, Oh My

Driving through the Northwestern region, you’ll find restaurants like the New York Hill Restaurant. This family-owned eatery serves up fresh-made cinnamon rolls, yeast rolls, and the juiciest steaks in the Thurber area. Order a slice of the Buttermilk Pie to finish out your meal the right way. Make sure you visit Kelli at Valley Pecans in Chillicothe, an expansive pecan orchard built with humble beginnings. What began as a truck-bed vending operation soon graduated into a full-scale pecan business housed in two buildings. The Pecan Nuggets make the perfect road trip snack, so pick some up on your way out. Children and adults alike will enjoy a stop at Wonderland Amusement Park. In fact, it includes a double-loop roller coaster, water rides, and even a miniature golf course.

Experience Southern Texas’ Best Home Cooking Restaurants

Set your wheels southward for a cruise through the Southern region. There are so many wonderful restaurants to choose from in this region, but you’d be missing out if you didn’t stop at Meyer’s Elgin Smokehouse. This Elgin-based food stop serves up food prepared from family heirloom recipes. Sample classic brisket and St. Louis-style ribs slow smoked for 16 hours to succulent perfection. Any of the eight varieties of smoked sausages offered pair perfectly with Buddy Meyer’s Pinto Beans, a father-to-son secret recipe. Now you can make it at home with the recipe included in this cookbook.

In Fredericksburg, step inside the ivy-covered walls of the Cotton Gin Village. Here, discover koi ponds with waterfalls, beautiful landscaping, rustic cabins, and the Cabernet Grill – Texas Wine Country Restaurant. This highly acclaimed restaurant boasts a unique culinary experience you won’t soon forget. While there, dip into a bowl of the Fredericksburg Honey Lavender Peach Crisp for a delicious dish that perfectly marries local grown peaches and lavender from Texas Hill Country. Stop by Horses on the Beach for a chance to spend a few hours horseback riding on the beautiful beaches of Corpus Christi.

Green Tomatoes and Greek-Inspired Gyros

Finally, you’ll close out your Texas tour with a visit to the Eastern region. Enjoy traditional fried green tomatoes and chicken-fried steak when you make a stop at Buttermilk’s in Canton. This country-style food stop transports you back in time to simpler times when food was prepared with passion. Grab a slice of the Chocolate Pecan Chess Pie before you leave. Don’t forget to visit John’s Café, a Dallas-based family restaurant that has been serving delicious food for over 43 years. Try the Gyro Omelet for a Greek-inspired twist on a breakfast classic. When you’ve had your fill, take a relaxing stroll through the Dallas Arboretum and Botanical Garden.
